\title{Standard deviation functions for functional time series}
\description{
Computes standard deviation of functional time series at each variable.
}
\usage{
sd.fts(x, method = c("coordinate", "FM", "mode", "RP", "RPD"), 
 trim = 0.25,...)
}
\arguments{
  \item{x}{An object of class \code{fts}.}
  \item{method}{Method for computing median.}
  \item{trim}{Percentage of trimming.}
  \item{...}{Other arguments.}
}
\details{
If \code{method = "coordinate"}, it computes coordinate-wise standard deviation functions.

If \code{method = "FM"}, it computes the standard deviation functions of trimmed functional data ordered by the functional depth of 
Fraiman and Muniz (2001).

If \code{method = "mode"}, it computes the standard deviation functions of trimmed functional data ordered by \eqn{h}-modal functional 
depth.

If \code{method = "RP"}, it computes the standard deviation functions of trimmed functional data ordered by random projection 
depth.

If \code{method = "RPD"}, it computes the standard deviation functions of trimmed functional data ordered by random projection 
derivative depth.
}
\value{
A list containing \code{x} = variables and \code{y} = standard deviation rates.
